i am developing scorpio complex

ever since i was a in high school i have always been proud to be a scorpio because we are passionate, intense, and extremely loving. But recently my friends have been knocking scorps because they are secretive, too intense, and are unable to do things in moderation. i am starting to think only bad things about being a scorpio. anybody have any insight into why people hate scorpios? i think they are secretly jealous....haha

Do you really care?

if you're a scorpio female, read the post below yours "on scorpio forgiveness"...that's me all upset because this scorpio woman I'm enchanted with is
so cruel and secretive! Maybe you can give me some advice!

Don't ever let anybody on the planet have an influence on your self-esteem. The way you feel about yourself should be determined based on how at peace you are with the way you treat others, and whether you leave them better or worse off than when you met them. If you know you don't intentionally hurt people, then you are good to go, and the only opinion about you that should ever matter...EVER...is your own. It sounds cliche and trite, but it's very true. You know if you're a good person deep down. These other people are complaining about traits that SOME, unevolved scorpios have. Prove them wrong. And about the secretive thing, I don't see that as being a bad thing. Lies are bad. Secrets are private things that nobody has any business knowing! You should stand up for scorps to your friends and tell them that "yes, there are definitely some who embody these characteristics, but for you to categorize us all as bad people for your few experiences makes you worse than the worst Scorp you can imagine!" See what they say to that.

In the meantime be proud to be a Scorpio. We have a great many good qualities, too! : )

Well said Heather.

Yes, ive seen the scorps with the negative traits but i have also seen the ones with the good traits (yourself included. Not that i have 'seen' you, lol). There has been a lot of bad press about scorps (as there is about every sign). The way i see it is that beauty is in the eye of the beholder. It is like when asked if the glass is half empty or half full, what do you say? I say 'half full'.

Your were born with a spirt of power, so use it and don't be ashamed of who you are.
